Amex Reports Multiple High Grade Gold Drill ResultsUp to 17.89 g/t Au over 8.40 meters from the HGZ at Perron

Amex Exploration Inc. ("Amex"or the"Company") (TSXV:AMX)(FRA:MX0)(OTCQX:AMXEF)is pleased to report a number of high grade drill results focused on expansion and definition of the High Grade Zone ("HGZ") of the Eastern Gold Zone ("EGZ") of the Perron Gold Project, Quebec

Today's results significantly confirm expectations of the continuity of the HGZ as Amex works to drill off its maiden resource on the PerronProject. Highlights are detailed below, and a complete list of results is available in Table 1 and presented in Figure 2.In addition to the results detailed below, Amex is waiting on over 15,000 samples at the lab from holes targeting the HGZ, Denise, and Grey Cat Zone, as well as regional exploration drilling.(Figure 1)

  • Hole PE-20-187W2 intersected:
    • 49.04 g/t Au over 2.20 m including 106.04 g/t Au over 0.55 m and 87.92 g/t Au over 0.55 m at a vertical depth of approximately 1,060 m.
  • Hole PE-20-216 intersected:
    • 13.94 g/t Au over 3.25 m at a vertical depth of approximately 260 m.
  • Hole PE-20-224W1 intersected:

  • Hole PE-20-224W2 intersected:
    • 7.57 g/t Au over 13.00 m including 141.21 g/t Au over 0.55 m at a vertical depth of approximately 780 m.
  • Hole PE-20-230 intersected:
    • 17.89 g/t Au over 8.40 m including 116.81 g/t Au over 0.50 m and 223.87 g/t Au over 0.40 m at a vertical depth of approximately 580 m.
  • Hole PE-20-230W1 intersected:
    • 7.45 g/t Au over 8.80 m including 100.86 g/t Au over 0.50 m at a vertical depth of approximately 540 m.

Qualified Person

Maxime Bouchard P.Geo. M.Sc.A., (OGQ 1752) and Jérôme Augustin P.Geo. Ph.D., (OGQ 2134), Independent Qualified Persons as defined by Canadian NI 43-101 standards, have reviewed and approved the geological information reported in this news release. The drilling campaign and the quality control program have been planned and supervised by Maxime Bouchard and Jérôme Augustin. Core logging and sampling were completed by Laurentia Exploration.The quality assurance and quality control protocol include insertion of blank or standard every 10 samples on average, in addition to the regular insertion of blank, duplicate, and standard samples accredited by Laboratoire Expert during the analytical process. Gold values are estimated by fire assay with finish by atomic absorption and values over 3 ppm Au are reanalyzed by fire assay with finish by gravimetry by Laboratoire Expert Inc, Rouyn-Noranda. Samples containing visible gold mineralization are analyzed by metallic sieve. For additional quality assurance and quality control, all samples were crushed to 90% less than 2 mm prior to pulverization, in order to homogenize samples which may contain coarse gold. Core logging and sampling were completed by Laurentia Exploration.
